Story

Cancer research is close to my heart. I will be running the race, with pride, for my Dad, who passed away in 2011 after being diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. My hope is that cancer will, one day, no longer be a plague to families.

I am looking for sponsors for my race, to help fund Cancer Research UK. I have covered all the expenses needed for entering the 10K, but I need some assistance in reaching a fundraising goal of 100 pounds before the start of the race, on September 18.

Presently, about one half of those diagnosed with cancer survive; it is the goal of Cancer Research UK to increase the survival rate to three quarters of people surviving all cancers within the next 20 years. An admirable goal. We can share a small burden of their task by donating a few quid. Every pound, or dollar, donated will go directly to Cancer Research UK.Your details are safe with JustGiving, and you will not receive any extra emails from them.

Thank you for your support!!
